Yep that should look good^
So here's how she sits after raising the front just a little, removing the 5mm spacer in the front, and getting it aligned. It was rubbing like crazy with the 5mm spacer and at the previous height.

Do you have an alignment spec printout that your alignment shop provided you?
I recently had mine aligned and it doesn't seem right...

You should easily be able to remove some rear camber. -2 would be fine for you

Just want a little advice. How did you deal with the no traction issue in first when you had your 4.083 gears. I have stock lsd and I know that's what you have too.

As always the car looks great. On a scale of 1 to 10 how bad is the cabin drone with your exhaust setup? I'm about 95% ready to buy TP's but the drone is bad with stock cats.
